PUMPKIN DAY/embracing the season . . .

Monday, 10/31 is PUMPKIN DAY at NCS.  K-4 students spend most of the day in mixed groups visiting a variety of locations while focusing on pumpkins, fun academics, physical activities, and crafts. Witnessing the positive energy in the halls as these groups move from station-to-station is something to behold!

Our pumpkin day gift to all NCS families: The day requires no special preparation at home.  Please keep costumes at home to enjoy for your own Halloween excitement.
